Honda CR-Z
Not only is this a nice little car, but it’s a hybrid to boot! This sporty two-seater features an electric motor to assist the gasoline engine. The electric motor delivers 13 horsepower, which brings the total to 122. It’s somewhat rare for a hybrid car to offer two transmissions, but Honda rarely does things they way other do. Thus, the CR-Z can come with either a six-speed manual or a CVT.
